15* TEXAS TECH/W VIRGINIA CFB SHARP WINNER on Texas Tech vs West Virginia under 60 -110

My money is on the UNDER 60 in Saturday's Big 12 matchup that has Texas Tech visiting West Virginia. No way should this total be this high with how bad the Mountaineers offense is. West Virginia has scored 14 points in each of their last 3 games. Red Raiders offense is only average 23.5 ppg on the road. I could see these two staying below 50. BET THE UNDER 60! 

20* FSU/BOSTON COLLEGE WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Florida State vs Boston College over 62½ -110

My money is on the OVER 62.5 in Saturday's ACC matchup that has FSU visiting Boston College. These two should fly past this one, as I think they easily get into the 70s. Seminoles are a mess right now and this Eagles offense is rolling. BC is averaging 34.6 ppg. The key here is that while the Eagles offense is scoring a bunch, their defense is giving up a lot too. BC is allowing 36.7 ppg and 496 yards/game in their last 3. BET THE OVER 62.5! 

20* UCF/TULSA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Central Florida vs Tulsa under 69½ -105

My money is on the UNDER 69.5 in Friday's AAC action that has Tulsa hosting UCF. With the Knights coming in having scored 44, 63 and 41 in their last 3 games, all of which saw a combined score of 69 or more, this line has been inflated big time. Tulsa is a very good defensive team and I'm expecting a big effort from the Golden Hurricane at home in prime time game. I'm not saying these two won't score a lot of points, just not into the 70s. BET THE UNDER 69.5! 

20* TEMPLE/USF CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Temple vs South Florida under 50 -109

20* MIAMI/OHIO CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Miami-OH vs Ohio over 54½ -110

My money is on the OVER 54.5 in Wednesday's MAC matchup between the RedHawks and Bobcats. I see these two easily getting to 60. Ohio's defense has really struggled for the most part this season. They are giving up 29.5 ppg and almost 430 ypg in MAC play. Miami's defense has allowed 40.6 ppg on the road and will be facing a Bobcats offense that is averaging 36.7 ppg at home. BET THE OVER 54.5! 

20* BALL STATE/W MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Ball State +7 -110

My money is on Ball State to cash in a cover as a 7-point dog against the Broncos. This is the best Ball State team in years and I just don't think they are getting the respect they deserve in this one. Western Michigan isn't anything special and I wouldn't be shocked at all if they lost this game outright. BET BALL STATE +7! 

20* FRESNO ST/HAWAII CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Fresno State vs Hawaii under 69½ -107

My money is on the UNDER 69.5 in Saturday's late late night action between Hawaii and Fresno State in the MWC. A lot of people just see Hawaii and think high-scoring games, but I think the books have taken that into account and set the bar too high. It's a full 10 points more than what it was last year. UNDER is a perfect 7-0 in Fresno State's last 7 games in November and 13-3 in their last 16 road games. BET THE UNDER 69.5! 

15* UAB/TENNESSEE CFB SHARP WINNER on UAB vs Tennessee over 47½ -110

My money is on the OVER 47.5 in Saturday's matchup that has UAB visiting Tennessee. Vols just had one of their best offensive showings, putting up 41 points and nearly 500 yards against a good South Carolina defense. I think they build off that here. UAB is only giving up 15.7 ppg, but that's an absolute joke The teams they have played are only averaging 16.7 ppg, so it's come against awful competition. I think this could be over the mark easily in the 3rd quarter. BET THE OVER 47.5! 

15* OREGON ST/ARIZONA CFB SHARP WINNER on Oregon State vs Arizona over 70½ -110]

My money is on the OVER 70.5 in Saturday's Pac-12 action between Arizona and Oregon State. No need to overthink this one. Wildcats defense is awful. In their last 3 games Arizona has allowed 51 to Washington, 41 to USC and 41 to a struggling Stanford team. I know Oregon State's offense hasn't done much the last two games, but that was against two really good defenses. They are still averaging 30.4 ppg and should easily surpass that. BET THE OVER 70.5! 

15* MARSHALL/RICE CFB SHARP WINNER on Marshall -10½ -110

My money is on the Thundering Herd to cash in a win and cover at home against Rice. The Owls aren't as bad as their 0-8 record, but they also aren't deserving of being less than a two touchdown dog against this Marshall team. The Herd are rolling right now with 3 straight wins and got plenty of motivation to make sure they go into their bye on a 4-game run. Rice just doesn't have the offensive fire-power to keep this close. BET MARSHALL -10.5! 

15* UNLV/COLORADO ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UNLV vs Colorado State over 64½ -110

My money is on the OVER 64.5 in Saturday's MWC action between UNLV and Colorado State. Rebels have already allowed 40 or more in 3 games, including giving up 53 at Wyoming and 56 at Fresno State. COlorado State just put up 35 at New Mexico and 41 at Fresno in their last 2. UNLV should score into the 30's as well and I see this thing getting well into the 70s. BET THE OVER 64.5! 

20* BUFFALO/E MICHIGAN CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Buffalo vs Eastern Michigan under 50½ -110

My money is on the OVER 50.5 in Saturday's MAC action between Buffalo and Eastern Michigan. BUlls just put up 43 last week against Central Michigan and will be facing a Eagles defense that has struggled to keep teams out of the endzone. E Mich gave up 37 last week at Toledo and have allowed 27 or more in every game but the opener against Coastal Carolina. Key here is the Eagles can also score, as they have put up 34 or more in each of their last 2 and 4 of their last 6. BET THE OVER 50.5! 

20* W VIRGINIA/BAYLOR CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on West Virginia vs Baylor over 56 -109

My money is on the OVER 56 in Thursday's Big 12 action between Baylor and West Virginia. OVER has cashed in 4 of the Mountaineers last 5 games and each of the last two for the Bears. Baylor is scoring 43.7 ppg at home and WVU is giving up 38.0 ppg on the road. We just need a little offense from the Mountaineers to push this well past the total. BET THE OVER 56! 

15* MISSOURI/KENTUCKY CFB SHARP WINNER on Missouri vs Kentucky under 45 -110

My money is on the UNDER 45 in Saturday's SEC East matchup that has Kentucky hosting Missouri. UNDER has cashed in 4 straight for the Wildcats and is 5-1 in the Tigers last 6. Kentucky has little to no offense. They haven't score more than 24 in 5 straight. Missouri is only giving up 16.6 ppg. Wildcats defense has been decent and should play well at home under the lights. BET THE UNDER 45! 

15* NM STATE/GA SOUTHERN CFB SHARP WINNER on New Mexico State vs Georgia Southern over 55 -110

My money is on the OVER 55 in Saturday's showdown between New Mexico State and Georgia Southern. The Aggies have already allowed 55 or more in 3 different games this season. The only game they have held a team under 30 is Liberty. Eagles should score at will and we should get more than enough offense from New Mexico State to push this total into the 60s. BET THE OVER 55! 

15* SOUTHERN MISS/RICE CFB SHARP WINNER on Southern Miss vs Rice over 50½ -109

My money is on the OVER 50.5 in Saturday's C-USA matchup between Rice and Southern Miss. I just don't think this is near enough. Owls are allowing 30.4 ppg and just gave up 31 on the road last week to a bad UTSA team. THey will be facing a potent Southern Miss offense that has scored 30 in all but two games. The two exceptions were both against SEC teams (Miss St, Alabama). BET THE OVER 50.5! 

15* IOWA/NORTHWESTERN CFB SHARP WINNER on Northwestern +10 -110

My money is on the Wildcats to cash in a cover as a double-digit home dog against Iowa. I think we are getting value here with Northwestern sitting at 1-5 and the Hawkeyes ranked in the Top 25. Iowa has not looked good the last few weeks. They can't run the ball on offense and are having a horrible time finishing drives with touchdowns. They got some key guys out as well. Northwestern has won 3 straight in the series and wouldn't be shocked at all if they won outright on Saturday. BET NORTHWESTERN +10! 

20* LIBERTY/RUTGERS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Liberty vs Rutgers under 45 -110

My money is on the UNDER 45 in Saturday's matchup between Liberty and Rutgers. I just don't see these two coming anywhere close to this total. Scarlet Knights come in averaging just 11.1 ppg, scoring almost 14 points under what their opponents allow. Liberty is only giving up 24.3 ppg. I know the Rutgers defense is bad, but the Flames only average 17ppg on the road and have scored 20 or fewer 4 times this season. BET THE UNDER 45! 

20* USC/COLORADO CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on USC vs Colorado over 63 -109

My money is on the OVER 63 in tonight's Pac-12 showdown between USC and Colorado. The Trojans have a pretty potent offense that should have no problem moving the ball against a bad Buffaloes defense that has allowed 30+ in every game. Key here is the Colorado offense. It's not been great of late, but that was on the road. They are much better at home and should be able to take advantage of a banged up USC defense. BET THE OVER 63! 

20* SMU/HOUSTON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +15 -115

My money is on the Cougars to cash in as big home dogs tonight. SMU comes in ranked in the Top 25 and without a loss. Houston has gotten zero love after losing their star quarterback (King) to a redshirt. I'm not saying they win the game, but we are going to get their best effort and winning on the road in these weekday games is just not as easy as people think. I'm confident the Cougars can keep it within two touchdowns. BET HOUSTON +15! 

15* MISSOURI/VANDERBILT CFB SHARP WINNER on Missouri vs Vanderbilt over 55 -110

My money is on the OVER 55 in Saturday's SEC clash between Missouri and Vanderbilt. These two combined for 61 last year and 62 the year before. I see them getting to 60 again. Missouri's offense is going to have a field day here and I see them giving up some garbage points late to the Commodores to push this well past the number. BET THE OVER 55! 

15* BAYLOR/OKLAHOMA ST CFB SHARP WINNER on Baylor vs Oklahoma State over 67½ -110

My money is on the OVER 67.5 in Saturday's Big 12 clash between Baylor and Oklahoma State. These two have combined for 66+ each of the last 2 years and I see them getting to 70 no problem. OK State can light you up offensively with their big 3 and Baylor is down their top linebacker. Bears can keep pace. BET THE OVER 67.5! 

15* TEMPLE/SMU CFB SHARP WINNER on Temple vs SMU over 59 -110

My money is on the OVER 59. I think SMU's offense is the real deal and will have no problem moving the ball against this Temple defense. The Owls are sound defensively, but their numbers are definitely inflated because of a soft schedule in terms of offensive teams played. SMU's defense is just okay and will give up some big plays. BET THE OVER 59! 

15* S FLORIDA/NAVY CFB SHARP WINNER on South Florida vs Navy under 52 -110

My money is on the UNDER 52 in Saturday's AAC matchup between Navy and USF. Bulls scored just 10 points at Georgia Tech and 0 at home against Wisconsin. I don't see them lighting up this Navy team and with the way the Midshipmen run the football, these two aren't getting to 53 points. BET THE UNDER 52! 

20* GA TECH/MIAMI CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Georgia Tech vs Miami-FL over 45 -110

My money is on the UNDER 45 in Saturday's ACC matchup between Georgia Tech and Miami. The Hurricanes got some of their swagger back with that upset win over Virginia and will not take their foot off the gas here. Yellow Jackets are awful. It was 38-7 last week against Duke before they called off the dogs. This team scored just 2-points at Temple and 14 against USF. BET THE UNDER 45! 

20* PITT/SYRACUSE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh vs Syracuse over 51 -110

My money is on the OVER 51 in Friday's ACC showdown between the Pitt Panthers and Syracuse Orange. I think with Syracuse coming off a game against NC State where a mere 26 combined points were scored, we are seeing a much lower total than we should. Pitt just played a game at Duke where 66 points were scored and I don't think the Blue Devils are all that great offensively. Last year these two combined for 81 points and the total for that was just 57.5. BET THE OVER 51! 

20* LAFAYETTE/ARKANSAS ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on UL-Lafayette -6 -110

My money is on the Ragin' Cajuns to bounce back from a disappointing loss at home to App State with a convincing road win over Arkansas State. I really like this Lafayette team and I think a lot of people are scared to back them because they had them last week and lost. Arkansas State just lost at Georgia State by 14 and have allowed 40+ points in each of their last 3 games vs a FBS opponent. BET THE RAGIN' CAJUNS -6! 

20* S ALABAMA/TROY CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Troy -14½ -110

My money is on the Trojans to make easy work of South Alabama and cover th 14.5-point spread at home Wednesday night. The narrative with Troy right now is that they are way down from what they had been in previous years. The Trojans are also just 1-4 ATS and just lost 42-10 at Missouri, which followed a upset loss at home to Ark State. I think it has troy laying a much shorter number than they should be against a bad Jaguars team that has not scored more than 21 points in a single game against a FBS opponent. BET THE TROJANS -14.5! 

15* NAVY/TULSA CFB SHARP WINNER on Navy vs Tulsa under 54 -109

My money is on the UNDER 54 in Saturday's AAC matchup between Tulsa and Navy. Don't be fooled by the 43 that Tulsa gave up last week to SMU, the Golden Hurricane are a solid defensive team. They have been really good against the run and I think they make things really tough on the Midshipmen. Navy's option attack eats up the clock. Perfect for UNDERS. BET THE UNDER 54! 

15* ARMY/W KENTUCKY CFB SHARP WINNER on Army vs Western Kentucky over 42½ -110

My money is on the OVER 42.5 in Saturday's Army/Western Kentucky matchup. Army just gave up 42 at home to Tulane and have scored 30+ in each of their last 3. I know WKU is not a great offensive team, but the number here is too low. BET THE OVER 42.5!  

15* CINCINNATI/HOUSTON CFB SHARP WINNER on Cincinnati vs Houston under 52 -110

My money is on the UNDER 52 in Saturday's AAC action between Houston and Cincinnati. I get Houston put up 46 on the road against North Texas in their first game with D'Eriq King, but they only had 359 total yards in that game. Just 124 through the air. Cincinnati has a great defense and a very limited offense. BET THE UNDER 52! 

20* MEMPHIS/TEMPLE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Memphis vs Temple under 50½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 50.5 in Saturday's AAC action between Memphis and Temple. Both of these teams are perfect for a low scoring game, as both are bit limited offensively and really strong defensively. No way they combine for 50+ in this one. BET THE UNDER 50.5! 

20* VIRGINIA/MIAMI CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Miami-FL -2 -110

My money is on the Hurricanes. Not a lot to think about here. I know all the numbers say Virginia, but when you got a ranked team getting points against an unranked team that comes in with a losing record, you take the unranked team. Books don't make mistakes. They clearly think Miami wins this game and so do I. BET THE HURRICANES -2! 

20* SYRACUSE/NC STATE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Syracuse vs NC State over 55 -110

My money is on the OVER 55 in Thursday's ACC action that has NC State hosting Syracuse. I mean all you really have to look at is the Orange's road game against Maryland earlier this season. They let the Terps put up 63 points and and more than 650 total yards of offense. That's the same Maryland offense that couldn't score a point in a 59-0 loss to Penn State and only 17 on the road against Temple. NC State is a young team that has struggled on the road, but are making a move to a more efficient passing QB and I think they put up a big number here and this flies past the number. BET THE OVER 55! 

20* APP STATE/LAFAYETTE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Appalachian State vs UL-Lafayette over 68½ -109

My money is on the OVER in Wednesdays' Sun Belt action between Lafayette and Appalachian State. These are two really good offensive teams. Ragin' Cajuns are averaging 44.4 ppg and 540 ypg. Mountaineers are averaging 47.0 ppg and 429 ypg. These are also two pretty sub-par defensive teams. Appalachian State has allowed 30+ points in 3 straight and while Lafayette's numbers are solid, they have played a bunch of bad offensive teams. BET THE OVER 68.5! 

15* BALL ST/N ILLINOIS CFB SHARP WINNER on Ball State vs Northern Illinois under 55 -110

My money is on the UNDER 55 in Saturday's MAC matchup between Ball State and Northern Illinois. UNDER is 3-1 in the Huskies first 4 and that's because they are struggling to much of anything offensively. Ball State doesn't have great defensive numbers, which I think is playing into the number, but I think they are good enough to slow down this Northern Illinois offense. BET THE UNDER 55! 

15* AIR FORCE/NAVY CFB SHARP WINNER on Air Force vs Navy over 45 -109

My money is on the UNDER 45. Anytime you have to option teams like we have here with Navy and Air Force, you want to look to play the UNDER. Not only are both teams well prepared for how to defend the option, you got both offenses eating up the clock with all that running. Just not enough possessions to eclipse a number like this. BET THE UNDER 45! 

15* TCU/IOWA ST CFB SHARP WINNER on TCU vs Iowa State under 43½ -109

My money is on the UNDER 43.5 in Saturday's Big 12 clash between ISU and TCU. Both teams really want this one and both are a little stronger defensively than they are offensively. Last year they only combined for 31 points. The year before just 21. UNDER is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. BET THE UNDER 43.5! 

15* MARYLAND/RUTGERS CFB SHARP WINNER on Maryland vs Rutgers under 57 -110

My money is on the UNDER 57 in Saturday's Big Ten showdown with Rutgers and Maryland. I think the Terps offense got people excited with 63 points vs Syracuse, but they have since scored just 17 at Temple and were shutout 59-0 last week at home by Penn State. Rutgers has scored a total of 16 points in their last 3 games combined. Simply not enough offensive fire-power for these two to eclipse the mark set by the books. BET THE UNDER 57! 

20* OKLAHOMA ST/TX TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Oklahoma State vs Texas Tech under 63½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 63.5 in Saturday's BIg 12 matchup with Oklahoma State and Texas Tech. I think the Cowboys offense is a little over rated. They got a great RB in Hubbard, but mediocre QB play. Texas Tech is a bit more defensive minded than they have been and aren't running the same stuff offensively. Also down their starting QB. I don't foresee a shootout in this matchup. BET THE UNDER 63.5! 

20* NEW MEXICO/SAN JOSE ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on New Mexico vs San Jose State over 66½ -107

My money is on the OVER 66.5 in Friday's MWC action that has San Jose State hosting New Mexico. Two bad defenses will be going. New Mexico is giving up 41.5 ppg and 526 ypg. They are allowing almost 13 points more per game than what their opponent is averaging. San Jose State is giving up almost 30 ppg and it would be higher had they not padded the stats in the opener against Northern Colorado. They are still giving up 456 ypg and 220 of those are coming on the ground. Look for both offenses to march up and down the field tonight. BET THE OVER 66.5! 

15* COLORADO ST/UTAH ST CFB SHARP WINNER on Colorado State vs Utah State under 71 -110

My money is on the UNDER 71 in Saturday's MWC matchup between Colorado State and Utah State. There's going to be some offense, but not this much. These two had a total of 66.5 last year and only combined for 53. The year before they combined for 41 with a total off 66.5. I don't know that they get to 60 this year. Bet the UNDER 71! 

15* ECU/OLD DOMINION CFB SHARP WINNER on East Carolina vs Old Dominion over 46½ -110

My money is on the OVER 46.5 in Saturday's matchup between Old Dominion and East Carolina. We are seeing a really low number here because of how bad the Pirates' offense has looked. ECU has failed to reach 20 points in 3 of their 4 games. Some of that is fluky. They only had 19 points on 480 yards of offense last week. ODU's offense hasn't been any better. Given neither of these teams are great defensively, I don't think it's asking a lot to get to 47 points. Bet the OVER 46.5! 

15* USC/WASHINGTON CFB SHARP WINNER on USC vs Washington over 60 -110

My money is on the OVER 60 in Saturday's Pac-12 clash between USC and Washington. This might seem like a high number for the total with how good the Huskies are defensively. I just think USC has some real playmakers on the outside that are going to produce. Also Trojans are looking to play fast and aren't exactly the most stout defensively. Washington is better offensively than people realize. Bet the OVER 60! 

15* ISU/BAYLOR CFB SHARP WINNER on Iowa State vs Baylor over 54 -110

My money is on the OVER to cash in easily Saturday afternoon in Waco. These two are solid defensive teams, but there's just too much offensive fire-power for this to stay below 55 points. Iowa State has one of the best QBs no one knows about in Brock Burdy and Charlie Brewer is the real deal at Baylor. I think both teams approach the 30-point mark. Bet the OVER 54! 

20* BUFFALO/MIAMI(OH) CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Buffalo vs Miami-OH over 47 -110

My money is on the OVER 47 in Saturday's Mac action between Buffalo and Miami (OH). This total isn't even close to what it should be. Miami (OH)'s offense looks atrocious, but have played 3 road games against Iowa, Cincinnati and Ohio State. They put up 48 against Tennessee Tech. Buffalo is off a huge upset of Temple and are not a great defensive team. They allowed 35 on the road to Liberty. I think this hits 50 in the 3rd quarter. Bet the OVER 47! 

20* DUKE/VA TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Duke vs Virginia Tech over 52 -110

My money is on the OVER 52 in Friday's ACC titl between Virginia Tech and Duke. We saw Boston College put up 35 points and 432 yards against this Hokies defense in Week 1 and Duke has more than enough fire-power to eclipse 30 in this one. Blue Devils have scored 40+ in each of their last 2. With this game being at home, I also expect a big day from the Hokies offense. I think this total should be closer to 58-59, giving us almost a touchdown in value at 52. Bet the UNDER! 

20* NAVY/MEMPHIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Navy vs Memphis over 53½ -110

My money is on the OVER 53.5 in Thursday's ACC matchup that has Memphis hosting Navy. I just think we are seeing a lower number than we should be because the Midshipmen come in having allowed just 17 points total in their first two games. That's a fluke, as they have faced ECU and Holy Cross. Memphis' offense didn't show up in the opener against Ole Miss, but were in prime form the last two. I could see this one easily getting into the 60's, as I think Navy will be able to keep pace offensively. Bet the OVER 53.5! 

15* S CAROLINA/MISSOURI CFB SHARP WINNER on South Carolina +9½ -110

My money is on the Gamecocks to cash in a cover here at Missouri. I don't think South Carolina is getting near the respect they deserve for how well they played last week against Alabama. The backup QB looked like he might have deserved to be starting all along. It wasn't like the Crimson Tide got up early and let South Carolina hang around. They were competitive early, which says a lot. Gamecocks also really need this game if they want a legit shot at a bowl. Bet South Carolina +9.5! 

15* MIAMI (OH)/OHIO STATE CFB SHARP WINNER on Miami-OH +39½ -110

My money is on the RedHawks to cash in a cover here as a massive road dog against Ohio State. Miami (OH) has a ton of kids who dreamed of going to play for the Buckeyes and didn't make the cut. They are going to come out with a chip on their shoulder and I think they are getting Ohio State at the perfect time. Buckeyes are due for a letdown after getting up for their first 3 against FAU, Cincinnati and Indiana. Plus they got a massive game on deck at Nebraska next week. Much like they did against the Owls in Week 1, Ohio State will get up comfortably early and call off the dogs to allow the cover. Bet the RedHawks +39.5! 

15* SMU/TCU CFB SHARP WINNER on SMU +9½ -109

My money is on SMU to cash in a cover here against the Horned Frogs. TCU is getting a lot of love for going on the road and beating Purdue without their starting QB. I'm still not sold on the Horned Frogs and I really like what I have seen out of SMU. Texas transfer QB Shane Buechele has been lighting it up and the defense is better than expected. I think they hang around against one of their many in-state rivals. Bet the Mustangs +9.5! 

15* BOSTON COLLEGE/RUTGERS CFB SHARP WINNER on Rutgers +8½ -109

My money is on the Scarlet Knights to cash in a cover on the road against the Eagles. No way should Boston College being laying more than a touchdown here against Rutgers after that performance they gave in a prime time game at home against Kansas. Scarlet Knights are better than the 30-0 beating they took at Iowa and BC definitely doesn't have the talent that the Hawkeyes have on the defensive side of the ball. Plus, Rutgers has a big edge here coming off a bye week. Bet the Scarlet Knights +8.5! 

20* S MISS/ALABAMA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Southern Miss +39½ -110

My money is on Southern Miss to cash in a cover on the road against Alabama. Books have really inflated the numbers on the Crimson Tide this year in these non-conference games. They failed to cover as a 55.5-point favorite at home against New Mexico State and couldn't get the job done last week as a 26-point favorite against South Carolina in their SEC opener. With big games against Ole Miss and Texas A&M on deck, look for Saban and the Tide to just go through the motions on Saturday and call off the dogs in the 2nd half Bet Southern Miss +39.5! 

20* FIU/LA TECH CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Florida International +7½ -110

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a cover here getting 7.5 on the road against the Bulldogs. I just haven't seen enough out of LA Tech for them to be laying this kind of number. They beat Bowling Green 35-7, but that was a much closer game late than expected. The previous week they only beat Grambling 20-14 as a massive 30-point favorite. FIU has not looked great, but have played some tough competition. I'm willing to bet Butch Davis has the troops ready to go in this one. Bet the Panthers +7.5! 

20* HOUSTON/TULANE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +5½ -110

My money is on the Cougars to cash in a cover and maybe even win the game outright at Tulane on Thursday night. I just think this is the perfect time to buy low on Houston after their 1-2 start. Cougars two losses are two ranked Power 5 teams in Oklahoma and Washington State. Tulane is program on the rise, but I think they are getting a little too much love here for a hard fought 24-6 loss at Auburn. Last year Houston won 48-17 against the Green Wave and I just don't think Tulane should be laying this kind of number here. Bet Houston +5.5! 

15* WKU/LOUISVILLE CFB SHARP WINNER on Louisville -10 -109

My money is on Louisville to cash in a win and cover against the Hilltoppers. This nothing close to the horrible Cardinals team we saw close out last year. I was really impressed with how well Louisville played in their opener against Notre Dame and loved how they bounced back with a dominant showing in a 42-0 win against Eastern Kentucky. I see them having no problem here blowing out WKU. Bet Louisville -10! 

15* STANFORD/UCF CFB SHARP WINNER on Central Florida -8 -110

My money is on the Knights to cash in a cover here at home against the Cardinal. It speaks volumes to where this UCF program has gone that they are laying over a touchdown against a Power 5 team like Stanford. It's or good reason. The Knights are going to score at will against a Stanford defense that was just torched by USC new freshman QB. UCF wins here by double-digits easy. Bet the Knights -8! 

15* USC/BYU CFB SHARP WINNER on BYU +4½ -105

My money is on the Cougars to cash in a win at home against USC. I really like BYU to win this game outright. I think we are seeing the Trojans overvalued off their big win against Stanford. BYU just beat Tennessee, but because of how bad the Vols looked in their loss to Georgia State in the opener they are getting no love for that win. If anything people are thinking less because of how they struggled. BYU has the goods to hang with the Trojans. Bet the Cougars +4.5! 

15* MARYLAND/TEMPLE CFB SHARP WINNER on Temple +7½ -115

My money is on the Owls to cash in a cover at home against the Terps. Every year there are teams that get way too much respect early for beating a team that people thought would be good but really isn't. People are all over Maryland after they destroyed a ranked Syracuse team last week, but the Orange should have never been ranked to start with. Temple won 35-14 at Maryland as a 16-point dog last year and I wouldn't be surprised at all if they won the game today. Bet the Owls +7.5! 

20* NC STATE/W VIRGINIA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on West Virginia +7 -115

My money is on the Mountaineers to cash in a cover at home against the Wolfpack. NC State has looked like world beaters their first two games, but those were against East Carolina and Western Carolina. Both on their home turf. That combined with how bad WVU looked last week at Missouri has this line way too high. I give the Mountaineers a legit shot here to win this game outright. Bet West Virginia +7! 

20* WASH ST/HOUSTON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Washington State -9 -109

My money is on Washington State to go on the road and lay a beating on Houston. I think Houston is way overvalued coming into this season. Sure they got a good QB in King and added Dana Holgorsen as their head coach, but the defense is awful. Mike Leach and his new signal caller Anthony Gordon are lighting up teams and I think they could put 50 on the board here. I also think Wash State has an underrated defense that will be able to get off the field and create the separation needed to cover. Bet Washington State -9! 

15* NORTH TEXAS/SMU CFB SHARP WINNER on North Texas +3½ -110

My money is on North Texas to cash in a cover at SMU. I really like Mean Green quarterback Mason Fine. He just might be the best non-Power 5 quarterback in the country. He was outstanding in Week 1 and torned this SMU team a season ago. Mustangs will score enough to make interesting, but the Mean Green should win this contest. Bet North Texas +3.5! 

15* SD STATE/UCLA CFB SHARP WINNER on San Diego State +9 -110

My money is on the Aztecs to cash in a cover against the Bruins. I think the thought process for most is they are giving UCLA a pass for a tough loss at Cincinnati and want nothing to do with a San Diego State team that just won 6-0 at home against Weber State, totaling just 238 total yards against a FCS foe. I expected more of UCLA in year two under Kelly than what we saw against the Bearcats. San Diego State still has an elite defense and the offense simply can't be as bad as they played in Week 1. Bet the Aztecs +9! 

15* CHARLOTTE/APP STATE CFB SHARP WINNER on Appalachian State -21½ -110

My money is on the Mountaineers to cash in a win at home against Charlotte. Appalachian State may no longer have Scott Satterfield, but they do have the players he developed. With 16 starters back, I think this is going to be a very dangerous App State team. Charlotte simply does not pose a threat, especially on the road. Not that playing at home would really matter. These two played in Charlotte last year and the Mountaineers won 45-9 with a 230+ edge in total yards. Bet Appalachian State -21.5! 

15* VANDERBILT/PURDUE CFB SHARP WINNER on Purdue -6½ -109

My money is on the Boilermakers to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Commodores. Purdue has to be one pissed off bunch after they let a 31-13 2nd half lead turn into a 34-31 loss. That was on the road and this a different team at home. Vandy just hosted Georgia and have a home game against LSU on deck. Really tough for them to stay focused on the task at hand. Bet the Boilermakers -6.5! 

20* UAB/AKRON CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Akron +9½ -110

My money is on Akron to cash in a cover at UAB on Saturday. The Zips got annihilated 42-3 in Week 1 at Illinois. I think it has them undervalued here against a UAB team that has no business laying this kind of points on the road after barely squeaking by Alabama State 24-19 in their opener. Bet Akron +9.5! 

20* WAKE FOREST/RICE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wake Forest -19 -104

My money is on Wake Forest to cash in a win at Rice on Friday. I think Army was the ideal opponent for the Owls to be competitive against. All they had to do was focus on stopping the run and because the game was close throughout, they didn't have to force anything offensensively. THe problem with Rice is they only scored 7 points on 243 yards of offense. Their only points came on a 54-yard run. They also were 7 of 14 for 62 yards passing. Wake Forest can score and I think things could spiral out of control for the Owls offense when they are forced to throw the football playing from behind. Bet the Demon Deacons -19! 

20* NOTRE DAME/LOUISVILLE CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Louisville +18½ -110

My money is on the Cardinals to cash in a cover against the Fighting Irish. I think we have Louisville way undervalued coming into 2019 after last year's disastrous 2-10 campaign. Notre Dame on the other hand is always overvalued and even more so off a big season. Last year the Irish went 12-0 and made the playoffs. Things really got bad under Petrino last year and I think the effort just wasn't there. That's why I think new head coach Scott Satterfield is in a position for some success out of the gate. Bet the Cardinals +18.5! 

20* HOUSTON/OKLAHOMA CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Houston +23½ -110

My money is on the Cougars to cash in a cover as a massive road dog against the Sooners. Oklahoma is going to be good, but this is way too many points for them to be laying against a Houston team that is going to be better under Dana Holgorsen and has one of the best quarterbacks in the country in D'Eriq King. Guy accounted for 50 touchdowns last year (36 passing, 14 rushing). Bet the Cougars +23.5! 

15* OLE MISS/MEMPHIS CFB SHARP WINNER on Memphis -4½ -105

My money is on Memphis to cash in a win at home over the Rebels. A lot of people are taking a shot here on Ole Miss as a small road dog. They just can't help but take the points with a SEC program against a non-Power 5 opponent. The thing is the Rebels are still in a rebuilding phase. Memphis has been one of the best Group of 5 teams out there and they got an absolute stud at quarterback in Brady White. Tigers take this one by at least a touchdown. Bet Memphis -4.5! 

15* TOLEDO/KENTUCKY CFB SHARP WINNER on Toledo +12 -110

My money is on Toledo to cash in a cover at Kentucky. The Wildcats struck lightning in a bottle in 2018 and went 10-3, flirting with a SEC East title. Unlike some of their other SEC counterparts, Kentucky doesn't reload with 5* talent. That's why I think the losses of running back Benny Snell and all those studs on defense will be too much to overcome. Kentucky will be good, but not as good as we think. Toledo is the best team in the MAC and will be ready for this one. Bet the Rockets +12! 

15* SOUTH ALABAMA/NEBRASKA CFB SHARP WINNER on South Alabama +36 -109

My money is on South Alabama to go into Lincoln and cash in a cover as a massive underdog. Nebraska is going to be greatly improved in year two under head coach Scott Frost, but I think there's so much hype around the Cornhuskers it has them way overvalued to start the season. The Jaguars are in year two under Steve Campbell and they too are expected to make massive improvements. Bet South Alabama +36! 

20* AKRON/ILLINOIS CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Akron +19 -110

My money is on the Zipz to cash in a cover at Illinois. I get Akron is nothing special out of the MAC, but i like the quarterback they got in junior Kato Nelson. Illinois was a similar 16-point home favorite to open last year against a MAC team in Kent State. They would go on to win 31-24 in a game that was very evenly matched. That Kent State would go on to win 2-games. Illinois will be better, but should not be laying close to 3 touchdowns. Bet the Zips +19! 

20* RICE/ARMY CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rice +22 -110

My money is on the Owls to cash in an easy cover here as a 3+ touchdown dog at Army. I got nothing but respect for Jeff Monken and what he's doing with that program, but this line is whack. I get Rice hasn't been good, but this is too many points for a triple-option team that likes to run the clock and has only 4 starters back on defense to be laying. Keep in mind Army was a double-digit favorite once all of last year. Last time they were asked to lay more than 20 against a FBS team was in 2017 as a 23 point home favorite against UTEP. They won the game outright, but only by 14 points (35-21). I see a similar outcome coming tonight. Bet Rice +22! 

20* KENT ST/ARIZONA ST CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Kent State +25 -110

My money is on the Golden Flashes to cover the 25-point spread at Arizona State tonight. This is without a doubt my strongest play for Thursday's CFB card. The Sun Devils were better than expected in year one under Herm Edwards and I believe it has ASU overvalued coming into 2019. I also really like the direction the Flashes are going under new head coach Sean Lewis. He's an offensive minded guy and I think offensive coaches are the way to go right now and result in the quickest turnarounds/improvement. Last year Lewis' offense improved by 11.1 ppg and 109 ypg. They got 9 starters back and will be even stronger. I could see them keeping it close early or coming through the back door with a couple of late scores. Bet Kent State +25! 

15* GEORGIA TECH/CLEMSON CFB SHARP WINNER on Clemson -37 +100

My money is on the defending champs to open up the 2019 season with an absolute ass whooping of Georgia Tech and cover the 37. Anyone that does a little bit of research on the Yellow Jackets, knows that this year could be really bad. GA Tech is going away from the triple-option to a pro-style attack. The problem is they got the same guys that were brought to the program to run the option playing in the new scheme. Clemson's offense could put up historic numbers with the talent they got coming back. This team seems to want to be viewed on Alabama's level and that means know hangover after winning it all. They come out fired up at home and could have this thing covered by the half. Bet Clemson -37! 

20* FLORIDA/MIAMI CFB WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Miami-FL +7½ -115

My money is on the Hurricanes to cash in an easy cover against in-state rival Florida on Saturday. Gators are coming off a double-digit win season and ranked inside the Top 10, while Miami is transitioning from Mark Richt to Manny Diaz and there's a lot of uncertainty at quarterback. I really like Diaz and I think he gets the most out of the talent at hand. Look for the defense to help out the offense, as the Canes elite Front 7 should dominate the Gators inexperienced offensive line that returns only 1 starter. Bet the Hurricanes +7.5! 

20* NORTH/SOUTH SENIOR BOWL SHARP PLAY on North -2½ -110

20* ALABAMA/CLEMSON CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WINNER on Clemson +6 -115

My money is Clemson to cash in the easy cover here against Alabama in the College Football Championship Game. The Crimson Tide are simply getting too much respect here. The Tigers are every bit as talented as Alabama at quarterback, head coach, defense, special teams. This line should be closer to a pick'em. Bet Clemson! 

15* E WASHINGTON/N DAKOTA ST CFB SHARP PLAY on North Dakota State -14½ -110

20* WASHINGTON/OHIO STATE CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Washington +7 -110

My money is on the Huskies to cash in an easy cover here as a 7-point dog against the Buckeyes. It's not that I don't think Ohio State isn't the more talented team, I just think bowl games are all about motivation. The Buckeyes got passed up by the playoff committee, despite going 12-1 and winning the Big Ten title. I think after watching how bad Notre Dame played against Clemson that Ohio State was more deserving. It's just not the same playing in a bowl of less magnitude and then you got the distraction with Urban Meyer stepping down. I think Washington and Chris Petersen really need this game and will be 100% locked in. Bet the Huskies +7! 

20* HYUNDAI SUN BOWL SHARP TOP PLAY on Pittsburgh +5½ -109

My money is on the Panthers to cash in a winning ticket as a near touchdown dog against the Cardinal. A lot of people want to write-off what Pitt has been able to accomplish this year. You can't blame them for taking advantage of a weak Coastal. Stanford plays in the Pac-12 for cyring out loud, which is easily the worst of the Power 5 conferences. Not to mention the Cardinal weren't anything close to what we have seen in previous years and I think they will be lucky to win this thing. Bet Pittsburgh +5.5! 

20* PEACH BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Michigan -6½ -106

My money is on the Wolverines to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Gators. No one expecting Michigan to show up here after how they ended the season with that ugly loss to Ohio State, which kept them out of the Big Ten title and likely the college football playoff. I'm not buying that. I expect the Wolverines to come to play and that should be more than enough for them to beat a pretty average Florida team by at least a touchdown. Bet Michigan -6.5! 

20* ALAMO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Iowa State +3 -109

My money is on the Cyclones to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Cougars in the 2018 Alamo Bowl. Washington State was one of the best stories in the country this year, as a lot of people thought they wouldn't even make a bowl and they nearly won the Pac-12. The thing is they were a win over their rivals away from playing for a conference title and a spot in the Rose Bowl. I just question if they are really happy about playing this game and at the same time, I don't trust them the slightest. Mike Leach's Cougars have been a favorite in each of the last 4 bowls they have gone to and only walked out with 1 win. Iowa State is arguably the better team and really has all the edges you look for when handicapping a bowl game. Bet the Cyclones +3! 

20* INDEPENDENCE BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Temple -3 -110

My money is on Temple to cash in an easy win and cover as a 3-point favorite against the Blue Devils in the 2018 Independence Bowl. The simple fact that the Owls are favored over a Power 5 opponent after their head coach left to take over at Georgia Tech really says it all. I just think people are really underestimating how much talent is on this Temple roster and I got major concerns for Duke's offense. The Blue Devils scored a mere 13 points in their final two games of the regular season and had 7 turnovers in their last 3 games. The Owls scored 40 or more in 3 of their last 4. Duke won't be able to keep up. Bet Temple -3! 

15* ARMED FORCES BOWL CFB SHARP PLAY on Army -4½ -106

My money is on the Black Knights to easily cover the spread here against the Cougars. Not only does Army have the motivational edge, I think they are the more talented team. All the talk is about how fast Houston plays and how much Army slows the game down. With Ed Oliver not playing and all the injuries that have piled up for the Cougars defensive line, I'm confident the Black Knights will be able to run the ball and control the clock. I think that's going to really frustrate this Houston offense, which keep in mind is without their best player in quarterback D'Eriq King. Bet Army -4.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Toledo -5½ -110

My money is on the Rockets to cash in an easy cover here against FIU in the Bahamas Bowl. It's been a great year for the Panthers, but they are going into this one shorthanded and simply won't be able to keep it close. Starting quarterback and 2018 C-USA Newcomer of the Year, James Morgan is not going to play. They also had running back Sawndarrius Phillips arrested and he too won't be available. Toledo comes in averaging 41.1 ppg and 448 yards/game. FIU isn't going to be able to keep pace offensively without Morgan. Bet the Rockets -5.5! 

15* GASPARILLA BOWL CFB SHARP PLAY on Marshall -3 -109

My money is on the Thundering Herd to cash in an easy win and cover here against the Bulls. All the talk about USF is they started out 7-0 and then lost 5 straight because the schedule got a lot tougher. They lost 5 straight because they aren't a very good team and played a bunch of cupcakes early on and won some games they shouldn't have. Marshall was a top player in C-USA and has the defense to slow down USF and the Bulls play no defense. Thundering Herd head coach Doc Holliday is also a perfect 5-0 in bowl games. Bet Marshall -3! 

20* DXL FRISCO BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on San Diego State +2½ +106

My money is on the Aztecs to cash in as a small dog against the Bobcats in the DXL Frisco Bowl. I just don't think the MAC is that good and Ohio is getting way too much love as a favorite here. I think San Diego State is the far superior team and will not only win this game outright, but win this thing in a blowout. Bet the Aztecs +2.5! 

20* BOCA RATON BOWL CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Northern Illinois +3 -115

My money is on Northern Illinois to cash in an easy cover as an underdog against UAB. I just think the books have completely missed the mark here, as I think the Huskies are the better team. UAB is a great story, but I don't think C-USA is all that it's made out to be. The Huskies are better than people think, as they played an absolutely brutal non-conference schedule against the likes of Iowa, Utah, FSU and BYU. They started out 6-0 in MAC play and had the division title wrapped up before losing their final two conference games. They then upset a really good Buffalo team in the MAC title game. Bet Northern Illinois +3! 

20* ALCORN ST/NC A&T CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Alcorn State +8 -109

15* N DAKOTA ST/S DAKOTA ST CFB SHARP PLAY on South Dakota State +11½ -109

15* ARMY/NAVY CFB SHARP PLAY on Army -7 -110

My money is on the Black Knights to make it 3 straight against rival Navy and cover the 7-point spread in the process. I think a lot of people just assume this will be close, but I think there's a pretty big gap in talent this time around. The biggest thing for me is how poorly Navy played earlier in the year against Air Force, losing 35-7. Army's only two losses this season are true road games against Duke and Oklahoma and they took the Sooners to overtime in Norman. Bet Army -7! 

20* BOISE ST/FRESNO ST CFB SHARP TOP PLAY on Fresno State +2½ -110

15* SOUTHERN MISS/UTEP CFB SHARP PLAY on Southern Miss vs UTEP over 44½ -110

My money is on the OVER 44.5 in Saturday's C-USA clash between Southern Miss and UTEP. This is just too low a total for a game that features a team that's as bad defensively as the Miners. UTEP has given up 40+ in each of their last two games against Middle Tenn and Western Kentucky. While Southern Miss hasn't been putting up a ton of points, this is one defense they can expose and there's zero motivation here for UTEP, who has to just want this season to be over with. OVER is 13-4 in the Miners last 17 when they come in having lost 6 or 7 of their last 8 games. Bet the OVER 44.5! 

15* STANFORD/UCLA CFB SHARP PLAY on UCLA +7 -105

My money is on the Bruins to cash in an easy cover here as a touchdown dog at home against the Cardinal. While UCLA comes into this game sitting at just 3-8, they have continued to show signs of improvement as the season progresses and are fresh off a 34-27 win at home against USC. There's got to be a ton of excitement going into year two under Chip Kelly and I expect the Bruins to play their hearts out here in the finale home game of 2018. I just don't see a ton of motivation here for the Cardinal and this is not your typical Stanford team in terms of talent. I just think this is too big a price for the Cardinal to be laying away from home. Bet UCLA +7! 

20* IN-STATE RIVALRY CFB PLAY OF THE MONTH on NC State -7½ +106

My money is on the Wolfpack to add to what's been a miserable 2018 season for the Tar Heels. North Carolina is just 2-8 and one of those two wins came against a FCS foe in Western Carolina. NC State has had their ups and downs this year, but they are fresh off a 52-10 win at Louisville as a mere 16-point favorite and I see no reason not to expect them to win here by at least double-digits. Bet NC State -7.5!
